@Shirish.. if Ashram bridge was not there in 1972, then which bridge is this? Could this be the one between NZM and Ashram intersection? Also, if ITO bridge was not there at that time, then how did people cross Yamuna? Was the Old Yamuna Bridge the only option then? I can clearly recollect ITO bridge at least as far back as 1978/9.

@ Aseem, as far as I know, Ashram bridge was not there in 1972. I doubt if even Indrapastha (ITO) bridge was there in 1972. In May 1978, people were still talking about ITO bridge as being something new, and there was not much from ITO upto Dabur factory, then Mohan-nagar, on way to Hindon/Ghaziabad.

There you have it Aseem! It is the Agra mixed passenger hauled by an Agra Cantt. WG 8838 arriving at Okhla station. The faint building you see in the background is Oberoi New Delhi Hotel which was built in 1965.
The picture itself is taken from Okhla North Cabin which does not exist anymore.

What are the places that are likely to have quadruple tracks way back in 72? Also, the photo itself seem to be taken from an overbridge. Also, note the faint building in the background towards right. Also there are no MG tracks. Does anybody know if Ashram bridge existed way back in 72? It has to be somewhere along NDLS - NZM - TKD line.
